It seems the topic of high conflict or high maintenance individuals will never go away. Over the years, I’ve handled different situations in different ways. For a long time, I felt that an invitation to argue, was directed at me and I happily joined the party. I had to defend myself. I had my reputation to defend. Or did I? Do you feel that way when someone offends you? Do you need to respond? What if it’s family? Dr. Moran Cerf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who has been studying decision making for over a decade has made a very surprising discovery via research. The #1 thing that will determine your happiness........ Hint: it’s not experiences, material goods, or personal philosophy! I haven’t got a chance to reach out to Dr. Cerf yet, but definitely will! We are going talk about all these things today! Write something below if you’re having an issue with anybody and you want to talk about a certain situation. Names will be not disclosed. I’m going to talk about a most recent text message triangulation from one of my family members trying to bait me… But I don’t take the bait. I’ve got funny story of a gaff I made many years ago. Have you ever left a message you didn’t mean to leave on a work voicemail? Paul Dolan - maybe you remember this.
